The Hidden Dance of Quantum Particles

Quantum particles have a peculiar behavior. They can be in multiple places all at once. This is due to a property called the wave function. The wave function is like a map that shows where a particle is most likely to be found. When someone measures the particle's position, the wave function collapses into a single point. This means the particle is found in one speci...
